The transfer mill is churning once again, with Real Madrid believed to be lining up a move for Hugo Ekitike, the forward from Liverpool. Sources close to the club suggest they are exploring options to reinforce their squad ahead of the run-in. Negotiations are still active, and with no other teams linked, Real Madrid appear to have a clear path to completing the deal. Real Madrid have been strong going forward this season, with 63 goals scored in 29 games (2.17 per game). Hugo Ekitike would give them depth and keep that attacking firepower going all season. Alongside this, Liverpool are said to be exploring James Garner, Evan N`Dicka and Alphonso Davies with Real Madrid likewise connected to Cole Palmer, Josh Acheampong and Rayan Vitor Simplício Rocha.
